Febuary 2008 - EMBED, a leading provider of Debit Card and Point of Sale Systems for the amusement
and family entertainment industry, announces the successful installation of the Embed System at
Frankie's Fun Parks in Greenville, Columbia, and Charleston, SC, and now Raleigh NC. "We are honored
to have been selected as the debit card and point of sale system of choice for Frankie’s,” comments
Merrik Keller, Sales Manager for Embed USA. The original project scope called for installation in only
the newly renovated Frankie’s Columbia, SC location. Keller adds, “Our relationship with the principals
of Frankie’s has progressed so well, the Embed System was commissioned at all 3 South Carolina locations
within a six week span and then in Raleigh as a replacement for another system.”
The Embed System is used to manage all areas of the Frankie’s Fun Park locations including the indoor and outdoor attractions, game room, food service, event reservations and redemption center. Frankie’s utilizes Embed’s wireless system indoors for game and attraction communication, as well as outdoors for their main attraction access control. Guests purchase a Frankie’s Fun Money Card at any of the Embed Point of Sale terminals or Self-Service Kiosks located throughout each park. The guests then present their Fun Money Card for payment at the Embed card reader located at each game and attraction. All Frankie’s installations are highlighted by the Embed Color-Glo Swiper, the industry’s only color-changing interactive card reader.
With great value hardware and no lock in contracts on cards the Embed System is the fastest growing debit card solution for Amusement Centers, FEC's and Theme Parks.
